Welcome to the Website dedicated to our daughter
Laura.

In early June 2001, when Laura was three years
old, she was diagnosed with a brain tumour (Medulloblastoom).

Laura had to undergo two operations, numerous
scans and medical examinations followed by seven weeks of radiation
therapy and chemotherapy. However, none of the treatment helped.
When in October 2001, Laura was unable to walk and in a short
space of time, became paralysed, it was discovered that the tumour
had spread to her head and back. The medical experts, very surprised
at this development, informed us that there was nothing more that
could be done for Laura.

At 2.30am on the 7th November 2001, after a long and brave battle
for life, our darling little girl died with us at her side, at
home.

On the 10th of November, Laura was buried in the
company of many well-wishers.

We have gone through and continue to experience a wide range of
feelings, including anger, loneliness, emptiness, sorrow and many
more. Above all, we ask the question; WHY? In an attempt to answer
the question and express these feelings, we decided to create
this homepage and dedicate it to Laura’s memory.

It would be difficult to translate the entire
story so we hope that the photos relate it adequately.

Thank you very much for visiting Laura’s
homepage. Please feel free to leave a message in the Guest Book.
